Tall Pike

A Mad World in a Madhouse Tall Pike

Johnny is sure that he came to the sanatorium voluntarily. Except for his tendency to ruminate for hours at a time, he was just an ordinary guy whose stresses caught up with him. According to the head psychiatrist, however, Johnny was committed involuntarily, deemed unfit to remain in society. The staff denies it, but Johnny is also sure that his prescription and diagnosis changed several times over the course of his stay at the institution. The unorthodox disciplinary measures and bizarre group therapy sessions only fuel his distrust towards his cruel and inconsistent handlers. Meanwhile, the appearances of apparitions and sudden transformations of his surroundings are too vivid for him to believe that they are hallucinations... or even the result of a manmade psychological experiment. As his sense of identity and perception of time continue to unravel, Johnny faces a daunting question: Are forces beyond his comprehension playing tricks on him, or has he truly gone mad?
